Um....no. It happens for me just because its signing into my profile while signing into Borderlands (As in, my xbox is set to immediately start a game if there's a disc in the tray, rather than going to dashboard first)

So because its still signing into my profile, the game sets everything to "default" because its signing in without a profile, then when it finishes signing me into my profile, I find i'm left with everything defaulted because apparently some wires got crossed.---GT/PSN: DEGALONOfficial Fuu of the Naruto Storm 3 Boards

Not true at all. I played 100% legit offline most play and online with my little brother who don't cheat and had crap items (only played with them to level 35 ish) and no split screen either. I stopped playing for 3-4 months then bought all dlc and came back and had all skins and heads lost and my BA rank was reset but not lost.---Gamertag - I S Y X X l | BF3 Battlelog - xI6ISYXXI6IxLoL: Trippi | D3: Syxx#1770 | POE Fistkicks / Fistkick / Bowfleks
